Experience the breathtaking beauty of the Canadian and American Rockies on a road trip like no other! With multiple routes to choose from, you can embark on an unforgettable adventure that will take you through some of the most stunning landscapes in the world.

Along the way, you'll have the opportunity to engage in a wide range of outdoor activities that will leave you in awe. Hike through alpine wildflowers, marvel at breathtaking waterfalls, and stand in awe of snowy peaks and glaciers. Spot wild elk, moose, and bighorn sheep, and take in the breathtaking views of Yoho's thundering Takkakaw Falls. Or, if you prefer, you can paddle over a crystal-clear lake, soak up the sun on a scenic drive, or go whitewater rafting.

But that's not all – there's so much more to explore! You can soak in a natural hot spring, hike to your campsite, and spot the Milky Way before you drift to sleep under the stars. And when it comes to food and accommodation, you'll be spoilt for choice. From the elegant Chateau Lake Louise to the delicious poutine and Alberta beef, there's something for every palate. And if you're a fan of the arts, you can catch the annual Stampede in Calgary, Sundance in Salt Lake City, or the Colorado Shakespeare Festival.

With nine national parks to cover, including Jasper, Banff, Yoho, Kootenay, Waterton, Glacier, Yellowstone, Grand Teton, and Rocky Mountain National Park, this road trip is a photographer's dream. And to make your journey even easier, we've provided you with easy-to-use maps, driving tools, and expert advice from former national park guide and author of Moon USA National Parks, Becky Lomax.

But don't forget to plan your trip carefully, especially in light of COVID-19. We've also included helpful resources on road-tripping the U.S. and Canadian Rockies, including tips for driving in different road and weather conditions, safety tips, and suggestions for LGBTQ+ travelers.
